2000AD Prog 1583, published on 23rd April 2008, delivers another sharp, visceral collection of science fiction stories from the heart of British comic culture. This issue perfectly balances character-driven drama with action-packed spectacle, making it an essential pick for both long-time fans and those new to the 2000AD universe.

The spotlight, as ever, falls on Judge Dredd, as the lawman of Mega-City One tackles another threat with his unflinching sense of justice. This episode continues to explore the city’s undercurrents of rebellion, corruption, and control, with a story that combines satire and intensity in true Dredd fashion. As tensions boil over, Dredd remains the immovable object in a society that’s constantly shifting beneath his boots.

Also included in this prog are new chapters from Savage and Strontium Dog. Savage continues its stark portrayal of occupied Britain, where the resistance fights a dirty, desperate war on home soil. The realism and grit of the narrative give it a different flavour from the rest of the issue, touching on themes of survival, loyalty, and sacrifice. Meanwhile, Johnny Alpha returns in Strontium Dog, chasing down intergalactic fugitives with precision and purpose. His storyline mixes Western motifs with high-concept science fiction, creating a thrilling blend that’s both action-heavy and deeply layered.

The artwork in Prog 1583 is consistently strong throughout, with each story presenting a unique visual tone. From the decaying mega-structures of Mega-City One to the smoky, war-torn streets of future Britain and the vivid otherworldly settings of Alpha’s missions, the illustrations are evocative and energetic, drawing readers deeper into each world with every turn of the page.
